NU's deep staff sets up well for a conference tourney and regionals (especially if NU can get a win in the first game), but with the NCAA inevitably going to a "best of 3" series for post season all the way to Omaha, pitching will be an absolute premium at the #1 & #2 spots.

Oh...wait...we've already had this conversation. Conference affiliation doesn't have to be a death blow to the program. Aggressive scheduling strategy and conference tourney win are all that are necessary to get the Big Red back to the big show in Omaha. Step back from the ledge and take a deep breath.
